The Oscars 2023 nominations will be presented live on Tuesday, January 24, 2023, according to an announcement made on ABC's "Good Morning America" by Academy Award winner Riz Ahmed and Allison Williams, who just starred in the blockbuster movie "M3gan." Starting on Tuesday night in India at 7 o'clock, the Academy will broadcast the Oscar nominations live from the Samuel Goldwyn Theater. The announcement will be shown on the official Oscars YouTube channel and on this page on Oscar.com.
The foot-tapping song "Naatu Naatu" from S.S. Rajamouli's historical action saga RRR, which recently won the Golden Globe Award in the same category, is on the shortlist for Best Original Song. If the M. M. Keeravani song is selected, it will compete for a spot on the final list with songs like "Nothing Is Lost" (You Give Me Strength) from James Cameron's Avatar: The Way of Water, "Lift Me Up" from Ryan Coogler's Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, "Hold My Hand" from Joseph Kosinski's Top Gun: Maverick, and "This Is A Life" from Daniel Kwan-Daniel Scheinert's Everything Everywhere All at Once.
Pan Nalin's "Chhello Show (The Last Film Show)" is up for the International Feature Film award.

"All That Breathes," a documentary by Shaunak Sen, is a finalist for the Academy Award for Best Documentary Feature Film. It centres on the lives of two brothers named Nadeem and Saud, who devote their time to caring for birds at an impromptu hospital in a Delhi basement. The film competes alongside other documentaries like Fire of Love, Children of the Mist, Hidden Letters, A House Made of Splinters, and The Janes, which won the Oeil d'Or (Golden Eye Award) at the 75th Cannes Film Festival.

Newton," "Anastasia," and "Angola, Do You Hear Us?" will have to be defeated.
